lovevacadays Posted November 20, 2014 #26 Share Posted November 20, 2014 My friend and I just got back from a 3 day cruise on the Golden. We had the Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bar which is part of the new "chocolate menu". It was fabulous!:):):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovetocruiseprincess Posted November 21, 2014 #28 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Can anyone report if they're on the Royal yet? I haven't see any on the new ones yet on the Royal. They're are some of the older ones that should be replaced.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Older Sister Posted November 21, 2014 #29 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Okay, has anyone tried the new chocolate cocktails? I'll be on the Regal in a few weeks and am really intrigued by the new "Dirty Piglet" cocktail! Allyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happytovacation Posted November 21, 2014 #30 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Hopefully all of the chocolate deserts don't have nuts in it. My granddaughter is allergic to nuts and especially hazelnut? Any answers will be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chamima Posted November 23, 2014 #31 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) I haven't see any on the new ones yet on the Royal. They're are some of the older ones that should be replaced.;) Thanks for the reply. We sail Dec. 9th and Princess' info says "on all ships by Jan. 1, 2015" so maybe we have an outside chance. I'm happy to read that they DO have the croissant/donuts. They didn't have them last winter and I really wanted to try them. My husband was also looking forward to their new craft beers so hopefully that also may be added. This is the press release about the Chocolate Journeys.

HRPro Posted November 23, 2014 #32 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Hopefully all of the chocolate deserts don't have nuts in it. My granddaughter is allergic to nuts and especially hazelnut? Any answers will be appreciated. The two chocolate desserts in the MDR were Raspberry Mousse with Chocolate and a Chocolate Tart with vanilla mousse. Neither had nuts. The Chocolate Tiramisu in Sabatinis also had no nuts. They were all fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treesah Posted November 23, 2014 #33 Share Posted November 23, 2014 The chocolate hazelnut bar is one of the best chocolate concoctions I've ever had. Kudos to the man who created this scrumptious dessert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SapphireHoneymoon Posted November 24, 2014 #35 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Had this on the Golden this past Friday. Only other Chocolate Journeys treat I saw were some chocolate chunk cookies. They were small in size but very, very good. Don't have a picture of the cookies though. Sent using the Cruis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The croissant/donuts they have (although deep fried) and also a few other new desserts that arn't on the other ships but not the new choclate ones. I didn't notice any new beers....wasn't looking.

I won't now!!![/QUOTE] I doubt you missed it. On both formal nights we had a Chocolate Journeys dessert. It was listed at the top of the dessert menu in bold type with a paragraph long description of the item, including identifying it as a Chocolate Journeys dessert. Almost impossible to miss unless you did not even look at the dessert menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Msail Posted December 1, 2014 #44 Share Posted December 1, 2014 My wife and I enjoyed the chocolate journeys we tried them all over the entire cruise. They were not as good as they look but enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kartgv Posted December 1, 2014 #45 Share Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Another vote for "look better than they taste". Several were served in the MDR, mostly on formal nights or special Chef dinner nights. They were good, but I'd much rather see Princess learn to make a decent brownie. The dry cake squares that they call brownies are a disgrace! Brownies should be fudgy, can be chewy or cakey, but never dry like those that were repeatedly served on our latest cruise (yes, I kept trying, hoping they'd improve!) My grandkids make better brownies - even the boxed brownie mixes are better! Edited December 1, 2014 by Kartgv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Msail Posted December 1, 2014 #46 Share Posted December 1, 2014 The cake and brownies at times almost taste like they have been frozen. They have no love in them .:( Sent from my QMV7A using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed odd to me, as I certainly would have expected any crab on a ship to have been frozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
